Since Greg Abbott has been in office, property taxes have gone up 75%. While I lowered taxes for Texans on the school board, Abbott’s recapture payments became a de facto state property tax we're paying. The only person gaslighting Texans is Greg Abbott.

Boy he must have really been hoping no one would look at the documents he talked about tonight because they underscore what I've been saying for 6 years, which is that the Trump-Ukraine Scandal was infinitely worse than people thought from the facts revealed during Impeachment #1

I think the reason I've been a little ambiently mad all day is because January 6th rioters are statistically the most likely group of pedophiles in the world and they clubbed a guy to death and they're going to be rich from the tax money that I give to the country I live in.

Trump swats away a "viscous bee." Why is he trying to harm one of Melania's White House bees?

BREAKING: The U.S. bishops’ Committee on Doctrine just issued a formal statement defending Pope Leo XIV's teaching authority on just war doctrine — less than twelve hours after JD Vance told a Turning Point USA crowd the pope should “be careful” talking theology. This is a serious escalation.

the pope is not woke. american conservative christianity has spent the last few decades mutating into an evil doppelgänger of itself such that any conservative christian leader who says things like “it’s wrong to incinerate schoolchildren” scans as a titan of superhuman moral fiber.

This week, schools across Texas will go quiet as our kids take flawed high-stakes tests that fail to reliably measure achievement while millions of taxpayer dollars flow to out-of-state testing corporations. That's not accountability. That's a corrupt system that serves corporate interests not kids.

Real time editing at @nytimes.com, in positive way. 1) Print front page has sane-washed version of Trump's vile Easter Morning rant. (First image) 2) Updated online version right now gives Trump's own words. (Second) Congrats to whoever at NYT noticed and made the "let's tell it straight" call
NYT story that skips around Trump's "Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards."Same story, un-bowdlerized.

I think it's important to say that Trump voters who are made at Trump are dodging responsibility. Oh, you're mad? Imagine the anger of those who voted in your interest in the hope of saving democracy, and protecting you from your worst self, and then hearing you bitch about how Trump wronged you.

5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil. 5 minutes… These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing.

The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents border patrol officers at the National Border Patrol Council, calls on Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to resign or be fired
Following the killing of AFGE Member Alex Pretti and the subsequent slanderous rhetoric that followed from top Trump administration officials, AFGE National President Everett Kelley issued the following statement:

“Yesterday, AFGE brought together labor and faith leaders from Minneapolis and across the nation to mourn our fallen brother from Local 3669, Alex Pretti. We honored his life and legacy and lifted up his family, his friends, his union, Minneapolis, and our nation in prayer.

“Today, we demand accountability.

“In the immediate aftermath of Alex’s killing, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem betrayed the public trust by slandering the good name of our union brother and calling him a “domestic terrorist.” Alex Pretti was a patriotic ICU nurse at a VA hospital who devoted his life to serving America’s veterans. That claim was reckless, defamatory, and unsupported by the facts. Noem was preceded in this false statement by Stephen Miller, Deputy White House Chief of Staff, who is also the architect of the chaotic and failed immigration policy in Minnesota.

“Our demand is clear: Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who was responsible for carrying out the policy that led to Alex’s needless killing, and Deputy White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, the architect of that policy, must resign immediately. If they refuse, President Trump must dismiss them.
